In our neck of the woods, the tamarack trees are the last to change color and drop their leaves (needles!). Interesting that this “evergreen” will drop all of its needles like a deciduous tree. The small tree is on the lake shore in front of the lodge, and the large, beautifully shaped one is by the campfire. These photos were taken about 20 days ago, so by now, all the needles are down, and the lake is just starting to freeze around the edges.
